Bequest Language

Many grateful families, friends and former patients have provided for the Children's Hospital Foundation or Norton Healthcare Foundation as part of their estate. Bequests enable Norton Healthcare to provide the best possible care for the patients we serve, expand clinical and research efforts and endow key programs.
